I'll give a small introduction to who I am in case someone comes across
this first post and is interested. I am Haley, a 20 year old junior at a tiny little
Christian Liberal Arts college in Georgia. I'm an English major with a
minor in art and criminal justice. I love to write but it has sort of become a job to me because I haven't really had the opportunity to write for pleasure which is why I created this blog.
This is my second blog. I had another one, but the title was too inappropriate to tell people about because I made it when I was a freshman in college and I thought I was being funny. I probably won't advertise this blog either because people reading my writing scares me to death, but if someone I know comes across this one, at least this title won't say "fuck" in it. However, this blog will probably say "fuck" and other colorful words, but I think that's a little less offensive than having to type that in the title to get to my blog.
My other blog was based solely on humor. I never posted anything if I didn't think it was funny. This blog will be a little of everything.I haven't lived a long life, but I've been through enough that I feel like I can give decent advice as long as you don't take me too seriously. I like to think that I have a pretty excellent sense of humor so I will
always be looking to make any situation as funny as I can because laughing is better than crying, but if
growing up has taught me anything-- it's that life is not always funny.
I've been told that I have a pretty crude sense of humor (not something that my mom is proud of but she over looks it most of the time) which I guess is true.. but I like to think of it as I'm not easily offended. You have to say something pretty awful or really personal for it to offend me. That being said, if I ever offend anyone who reads my blog.. well.. whoopsie. I'm honest and I will never apologize for that.
I guess I could consider myself as a feminist. I'm not one of those high and mighty feminists who won't take her husbands last name and doesn't let a man hold the door open for her (because I'm from Georgia and opening a door for a lady is good manners and that means your daddy taught you well), but I know how to use a gun, power tools, and as far as I'm concerned-- you can make your own damned sandwich.
I like good people and I like to see good in the world. I hate the negativity that surrounds us every single day. I want to make the world a better place, but I know I'm 20 and fairly insignificant in the big scheme of things right now, but hopefully that will change one day. If it doesn't, at least my dog loves me.
I hope you enjoy my blog as much as I do. I can't say how frequently I'll be on here because I'm beginning a new semester and it's gonna try and kick my ass, but I'll make a solid effort. This will be a journey. A strange, humorous, sad, struggle though life. Sometimes it will be easy and sometimes it won't. Sometimes it will be funny and sometimes it will be heart breaking, but in the end I think that if you have a place to belong it can make the world a better place.
